Telling people that they are is lying to their face
Democrats convinced 10,000,000 people that voting didn't matter by doing nothing about their economic suffering apart from spending three months of campaign time telling them to just be joyful about it. Of course those people chose a badly needed day's pay instead.
They told another chunk of people, who've watched their family, friends, and neighbors get bombed at will by Israel that they supported it by sending Israel more WMD's mid-genocide.
The liars are the people we elected to represent us who did an abominably shitty job. It's that simple. Will Republicans be better? Probably not, judging by their history, but for some reason no failure is failure enough to get people to change how they vote anymore. They just stop voting completely.
People don't want Nazism, Fascism, or genocide.
They just don't want these neoliberal Democrats.
LOL
That's almost as bad as... "Dems aren't perfect, but."
Christ, I wish the Democratic Party had a shred of empathy left for workers. The minimum wage has been $7.25 for almost 20 years now, across two Democratic presidents who had control of Congress, and both made $100 billion-plus dollars appear out of thin air for war profiteers. The system gives these men all the power they need to make meaningful change, they just don't give a fuck about anyone who can't afford the $500,000 minimum it costs to buy a five-minute meeting at the Democratic National Convention.
Republicans stab us in the front. Democrats stab us in the back.
